Random thoughts while listening:

Awesome that you are invited to 32!
Yeahhhh, TV producers in the US LOVE injuries.
It f***ing sucks that ANW doesn't give a s*** about the fans, ratings would go way way up even more than they already are if they decided not to f***ing have these stupid inspirational fluff pieces.

Time for my thoughts on each of the obstacles along with what you and Will are talking about:

Ideally I want every obstacle gone but knowing H&S they will probably want the "safe" obstacles back.
Roller Hill- I like it a lot, it's just sort of slow lol. Agreed with Will though, it's not steps! KEEP
Log Grip- It's old and nobody fails it anymore. I'd get rid of it. DESTROY
Music Box- I like it but it's sort of awkward and people were kinda cheating by running across the top. MODIFY
Jump Hang Kai- I want to see a new trampoline obstacle that doesn't involve a net or a spider walk. DESTROY
Tackle- Love it in the 1st Stage. It's unconventional and it's a breath of fresh air because the past few 1st stages have been a bit too formulaic. KEEP
Warped Wall- It needs to die, but H&S wanted it back because it's safe. I'd say modify it in some form, like modifying the curve or something (I WOULD LOVE THE TRAVELLATOR FROM GLADIATORS). MODIFY
Tarzan Rope- I like it sort of but the Swing Mast could work perfectly here. MAYBE DESTROY
Lumberjack Climb- I LOVE IT SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ROPE LADDER. KEEP

Cross Slider- It sucks and the setup screwed Jin over. Honestly ANW's first 2nd stage obstacle (Rope Jungle, the one that wasn't modified to screw Ryo and Kanno lol) is much better. DESTROY
Salmon Ladder Up/Down- I like it but I'd like the rungs on the first ladder to be on the other side so you turn around and transition sort of like the DSL. All this being said, I don't think that there should be a Salmon Ladder in this renewal. DESTROY
Spider Walk + Spider Drop- Honestly not sure about this one. I'd say change how the track is lol. MODIFY
Backstream- .....DESTROY
Wall Lift- It's time to put it down. There needs to be something else here... maybe a balance thing? idk lol. DESTROY

Drum Hopper- I like it. KEEP
Iron Paddler- Honestly I don't want it anymore. People blaze through it for the most part but I'm just bored of it. DESTROY
Sidewinder- Make the gaps farther? MODIFY
Crazy Cliffhanger- It's time for the CH to die. I WOULD LOVE A PEG BOARD HERE. DESTROY
Vertical Limit Kai- I'd love for this to be in the 4th obstacle slot. Pretty much making this the new Cliffhanger of sorts. KEEP
Pipe Slider- It's easier than in 28-29 imo. MODIFY or DESTROY

Final Stage- I'd just get rid of the Spider Climb and keep the G-Rope.

Fun podcast to listen to!

Sorry I'm still laughing over the double all star fail and you called one an idiot (SHINGO! XD) and the other arrogant/cocky (Takeda! XD). I've gotten used to this epic fail so I'm laughing. It's all in good fun. Also grats on being invited to SASUKE 32! Dang I wanna go this time! XD

Just a quick update, the Final Stage Podcast has a new logo and I updated the first four episodes with new thumbnails! All future videos will have the new logo in them instead of the placeholder image I've been using.

Also, you can keep track of all the episodes on this handy playlist I made: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm9tbUb9EAutyIlUzipfBsuVtmVHav_lt

Oh they came out reaaaaaaally nice! Awesome job William!

[arsenette]

Yay! We are on iTunes! Search for Final Stage Podcast (without the apostrophe...) There's also the hosting site if anyone is interested in hearing it that way.

[arsenette]

Learning how these things work so don't mind me.. If anyone is inclined to rate/review the podcast I found a nice write up for those unsure how to do it. I'm totally new to ianything so I wasn't sure what the process was. We update once a month and the latest is already recorded. I expect it will be published by Friday on YouTube. As soon as get information on when it hits iTunes I'll let you know as well.

[GlobalNinjaFan]

I think only the Tackle, Wall Lift, Sidewinder and Pipe Slider should stay in their current form in the renewal... Modify or swap everything else
